Dark Mode

Early this morning, Qiao Family's first branch set off a firecracker at the entrance of the restaurant. They also wrote on the small blackboard at the entrance of the restaurant: All customers who come to the restaurant today will get a 10% discount!

Why?

Naturally, the owner was happy!

An Ping and Dai Xiao Xue had been married for nearly three years and there was no movement in Dai Xiao Xue's belly. But yesterday, Dai Xiao Xue went to the hospital for an examination and the doctor said she was two months pregnant!

Wan Chun Ju was so overjoyed that she plopped on the ground and cried loudly on the spot.

Ever since she knew her son was incapable', she had found various remedies in private, but none of them worked!

From the initial depression to the final despair, she had passively accepted the fact that the first branch was about to end. Unexpectedly, there was a turnaround!

Dai Xiao Xue was actually pregnant. She was finally going to be a grandmother!

"Xiao Xue, why did you get up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"

After setting off the firecrackers, Wan Chun Ju saw her daughter-in-law coming to the store and immediately showed care.

In fact, ever since she knew her son was incapable, she had always been very polite to Dai Xiao Xue. Now that her daughter-in-law was pregnant, she couldn't wait to treat and serve her like Empress Dowager Cixi!

Dai Xiao Xue had been married for almost three years, but her personality was as carefree as ever. She grinned and said, "Mom, I've had enough sleep. Being at home is too boring. So I came to the store to see if there's anything I can help with."

"The store was full of staff. What need is there for you, a pregnant woman, to work? Xiao Xue, it's not that Mom wants to preach. You are different now. You must be careful!"

Wan Chun Ju hurriedly supported her to sit down on the chair, and specially placed a soft cushion on the chair. Her tender care behavior was as if she was holding a fragile antique vase.

Putting aside the current implementation of family planning where a couple can only have one child, the child in Dai Xiao Xue's belly may be the only child of their eldest branch.

So no matter what, nothing can happen to Dai Xiao Xue's belly!

Since Dai Xiao Xue became pregnant, she didn't have much reaction except for the occasional nausea. She didn't understand why her mother-in-law won't let her do anything.

Seeing that she couldn't sit still, Wan Chun Ju hurriedly said, "Xiao Xue, didn't you say you wanted to eat brown sugar glutinous rice cake last time? Mom will go and make it for you right away?"

Dai Xiao Xue came here after having breakfast. Now at the mention of the brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, she suddenly felt hungry again: "Thank you Mom. Do you need me to go in and help?"

Wan Chun Ju hurriedly stopped: "No, no, I can handle that little work by myself. You don't have to do anything while sitting here, understand?"

Seeing this, Dai Xiao Xue had no choice but to nod obediently. Rubbing her belly, she expressed that she won't do anything.

Only then was Wan Chun Ju satisfied and smilingly went in to make dessert for her daughter-in-law.

The guests who came to the store for breakfast saw this scene and thought that Dai Xiao Xue was lucky to have a mother-in-law who treated her so well.

In fact, everyone didn't know that when Dai Xiao Xue first married, Wan Chun Ju gave he attitude. In short, she was picky and found her displeasing in every way.

No matter how carefree Dai Xiao Xue was, she was angry and cried a good few times. If An Ping hadn't stood up to protect her, Dai Family might have them divorce.

Everything started from that misunderstanding. At first, the two were embarrassed to explain to their parents. After the misunderstanding, Wan Chun Ju no longer found fault with Dai Xiao Xue. So they chose not to explain.

Because Dai Xiao Xue didn't want to have a baby so early, they have chosen contraception for the past three years. This deepened the misunderstanding.

But it was because of this misunderstanding that Wan Chun Ju was so nice to Dai Xiao Xue. It could even be said that she was trying to curry favor with her.

No one expected this situation.

Especially Dai Xiao Xue's mom. When her daughter first married, she worried for a long time. No one thought that such a thing would happen later!

Since the mistake happen, keep the mistake as the relationship between first branch's mother and daughter-in-law had become much more harmonious.

...

In the past two years, the country's economy had been getting better and better. People had become more and more willing to spend money on consumption.

On the newly developed commercial street in the capital, a shop named Xinqiao' was doing very well.

The store was larger than the average store and was divided into two parts. The left side was selling mass-produced clothes, while the right side was a studio for making custom clothes.

Although the clothes on the left are mass-produced, the designs were elegant and fashionable. They were very popular among young girls. The studio on the right was obviously a high-end custom-made shop. Usually rich people would go there.

A limousine drove up to the Xinqiao' shop and stopped. A long-legged woman with black hair and fair skin stepped out from inside. The woman was wearing a royal blue cheongsam, which perfectly complemented her curvy figure.

As soon as she stepped out of the car, all eyes on the street were focused on her.

"That girl looks pretty. Is she an actress? But why don't I remember seeing her on TV?"

"No, not an actress. She is the owner of 'Xinqiao'. I heard that all the clothes in 'Xinqiao' are designed by her!"

"Oh my god, if you din't tell me, I wouldn't know that the owner of 'Xinqiao' is so young. And she is so beautiful! With her appearance, not many actors and stars can beat her!"

"Ain't that right!"

Da Qiao heard everyone's discussion. A slight smile hung on her mouth. Her long legs took her to the shop on the left side of Xinqiao'.

After graduation, she didn't marry Huo Chi immediately. Instead she chose to build her own career.

She loved Huo Chi, but she didn't read so study so much to be a vassal to any man. Her grandmother taught her since she was a child to rely on herself was the most reliable thing.

So after graduating, she started her own clothing brand. Xinqiao' was founded by her.

Fortunately for her, as soon as the clothes were launched, they immediately won the love of the public.

Later, it became bigger and bigger. Now Xinqiao' had become a moderate brand. The clothes designed by her can be found in markets all over the country.

Although she pursued her own career, she never thought about being a strong woman. And she didn't have the patience to deal with business negotiations.

So she chose to work with Cai Ru Nan and her fianc Tang Han Hai.

Tang Han Hai's family initially worked in a clothing factory. She designed the clothes, they helped produce them and then pushed them to the market.

Because the contract was signed before the cooperation, they were only a cooperative relationship. Not a partnership company. They knew each other's personalities very well, so we have cooperated very happily in the past two years.

Da Qiao walked into the shop.

A difficult and picky customer happened to come to the shop and had tried on many clothes. Still, she wasn't satisfied.

"Wasn't it said that the design of Xinqiao' is the most beautiful and unique? I think it's a lie, right?" the female customer rasied two slender eyebrows and complained.

The salesperson, Xiao Mei, was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. She blushed when she was told off by the female customer. She didn't dare to retort back, for fear of offending the customer.

She said nicely, "This guest, there are still many styles of clothes in our store. Why don't you try other ones?"

The female customer became more and more impatient: "Not trying. It's such hot weather. You think I'm not roasting from all the changing in and out?"

At this moment, Da Qiao walked over, took a red top and a pair of black pants from the hanger, handed them over and said with a smile: "Try this one."

Her voice was soft and non-aggressive. When she spoke, there was a smile on the corner of her mouth and shallow dimples appeared. However, her temperment and her compelling beauty made people dare not despise her.

Just now the female customer was very arrogant to the salesmperson. Now in front of Da Qiao, her aura suddenly weakened: "I have never worn red clothes. I will definitely not look good in them."

Da Qiao cheerfully spoke, "Go and try it. If it doesn't look good, you can choose one item in this store then and I will give it to you for free!"

Seeing her decisive behavior, the female customer tentatively asked: "You... are the owner of this store?"

Da Qiao nodded.

The female customer showed a surprised expression. She had heard that the owner of Xinqiao' was young and beautiful and treated as an exaggeration. Unforeseen, she was even more beautiful than the rumors!

She turned her eyes to the clothes in her hand and suddenly felt a little moved.

Noticing her expression, Da Qiao handed over the clothes to Xiao Mei and told her to bring the female customer in to change.

The female customer hesitantly went in. When she came out and looked in the mirror, her face flushed with excitement: "...I didn't wear red even when I got married. I felt I'm too fat and wearing red will definitely make me look fatter. Never thought it wouldn't!"

And it also highlight her good complexion. Mostly importantly, she seem to have become slimmer!

Da Qiao pursed her lips: "Red clothes won't make people look fat. Proper red is dignified and generous. It perfectly complement your temperament!"
